What Our Clients Say

I contacted Peter because a billion dollar online company refused to pay me for services rendered. Despite the distance (I'm not in Los Angeles), Peter was great and helped avoid a long and costly trial by negotiating a satisfactory settlement.

Hired firm to settle a family business matter. Work was top-rate, delivered on-time and always with a thorough explanation of the situation and my options. Would definitely recommend and work with Peter Bronstein again.
